An Introduction To The Science And Skills%20Of%20Wellbeing is the kind of topic that looks straightforward until it collides with the speed, ambiguity, and competing demands of supervision meetings, staff training, clinic systems, and performance review. In The Science And Skills%20Of%20Wellbeing, for this course, the practical stakes show up in better performance, lower drift, and more sustainable team development, not in abstract discussion alone.

Burnout and stress are rampant in the social service professions, resulting in a workforce recruitment and retention crisis (Medicaid, 2021). The World Health Organization's recent amendment to the International Classification of Diseases included Burnout as a classification (WHO, 2019); employee well-being has become a primary concern to society. PERMA is a model of well-being that has been implemented across many social service professions (Nuemeirier, 2017; Bazargan-Hajazi, 2021). The intentional application of the science and skills of PERMA can elevate the well-being of professionals, resulting in greater opportunity for effective intervention delivered by those professionals. Individuals being served by behavior analysts have a right to effective treatment (ABAI, 1999). A workforce prepared to serve is required for the delivery of effective treatment. In addition, there is a paucity of research in the assessment of mood in behavior analytic research addressing the needs of autistic individuals themselves (Ramey et al, 2022). PERMA+ may have applications in the autistic population. This session will explore the PERMA theory of well-being and the application of this theory to autism services and supports. Some initial data will be shared from ongoing feasibility work with autism service providers.
